Thanks for watching Puppy Training Tips – 14 Things New Owners Shouldn't Do. Which tip did you find most helpful?
I was surprised to see Pickles using a treadmill. Is that a special one for dogs?
Thanks for all those tips! I learnt so much! I was surprised by the retractable leash (I was kind of a fan when I had my first dog when I was younger) but I get the point now. They seem quite dangerous if they fall or the pup runs away and extends fast. I was also surprised with the "Don't groom your dog yourself." I did it when I was younger and didn't have any accidents. I was very careful and used the combs on the clipper. Do you have recommendations on owner training or learning resources if we want to do it ourselves? I'm thinking about having a mini labradoodle in a couple of years and am interested in reducing those costs by grooming the pup myself.
Besides being dangerous, the retractable leash keeps constant tension, which can obviously make your dog tense.
You have excellent and amazing videos. I'm glad I found your channel
It's also very important for people to understand that dog trainers here in Canada at least are NOT regulated. Meaning anyone can call themselves a dog trainer. The Canadian dog association is working on regulating this. I'm not sure how it is in USA or other countries. And I've seen some trainers on Utube who I'm not thrilled with their training methods. Dog owners do your homework.
wow Do you notice your dog on the treadmill is suffering?! She kept looking at you for help or to stop… imagine if someone tied you up and “force” you to run on the treadmill while they just kept “talking”?!!! Not nice
My shihtzu actually got injured by 2 "professional" groomers (15yo me couldn't tell the difference between a professional and someone thinking it's easy cash on the side) because he "wiggled so suddenly" as a puppy. That made grooming or bathing him impossible. It's been 7 years since I've started grooming him myself and he's pretty chill about it if it's me grooming him. He won't trust anyone else. So dogs definitely remember negative experiences for life, thanks for your tips 😅
What are your thoughts on “grass” pads? I’m planning to use those as my puppy will be 8 weeks old and won’t have all her vaccines, but I do have a balcony and don’t want to encourage going inside with regular puppy pads.
Omg I love how hate pee pads I wanted them but my mom convinced me other wise!
What is a reasonable amount of time to expect crate time for a new puppy to get better?
I really like the things you do and they also help me a lot. Keep it on
Thank you
AMAZING info! Had to subscribe! I have a 9 month Olde English Bulldogge….to say he's a challenge is an understatement. Looking forward to reviewing some of your other videos for tips
I just need to only watch your videos because I was definitely doing some of these thing from other trainers
I think I might be doing everything wrong. I'll change several behaviours. However, my puppy does sleep in the bed with me and I won't change that. I've already put a plastic sheet between the mattress and the sleeve sheet to protect it.
Hi Michelle. I am writing to you from Greece. I am really enjoying your videos and have helped me a lot!
We adopted a puppy, it is a Wire Fox Terrier, and she is now almost 4 months old. She is lovely and very smart but she is eating her poo (coprophagia) whenever she gets the chance. Do you have a video on this with advice?
Thank you very much for all your great work.
Is it ok to potty train in the morning then pee in the puppy pad at night
Very helpful! Thank you 😊
Every single dog I have met in the dog park that I go to she has the same temperament not quite the same but simpler play go to the bathroom and play
If I put crate in other room, my 9 week German Shepard will cry and whine all night, I can’t even go to bathroom without close the door, if I’m not in his sight he is barking, WHAT DO I DO? Please help🙏
Question! We got a play pen that connects to the Kennel. I am a nurse working 12 hr shifts. I got the play pen to set up in my kitchen for puppy to be in while I’m at work because I don’t think it’s fair for him to be in the kennel for 12 hours out for a few hours in the evening and then back in the kennel for bed time. I don’t have someone to come over and take him out and I certainly don’t get a lunch break to come home and do it myself. So I figured he could be in the pen with room to play and move around, eat and drink, and potty on pads while I’m at work exclusively, which is 1-3 days a week depending on my schedule. This was the advice of another dog channel. What’s your advice for this scenario?
I do use a tie out, I use it only under supervision, for purposes like, if I'm working outside and I don't want my dog too close to my tools, and for when we are at a gathering or bbq so that my dog is safe from all the people around him and so that we can play games without having to hold him. We don't use a chain, and we aren't going to, we use a cord.
I like a lot of your points but I think teaching people that they should never use aversives is a blanket statement and not a very nuanced way of approaching training. As well, teaching people to never put their hands in their puppy's bowl is irresponsible. Way too many large breeds learn possesive behaviors over time and this can be dangerous with young children around who like to touch dogs regardless of whether they are eating.
Great tips Michele
I have my new puppy since 3 days and I am so grateful for professional help.
Do you have any tips on getting a cavoodle
Lol I got metal and a soft play pen. The soft play pen was such a waste of money! My 12 week corgi is so active and can easily knock it over or tear it apart. We tried it once and now it’s sitting in a closet. 🤦♀️
One time i got an awsome puppy pen for my puppy cause i had to go eat, he didint want me to leave him so he thought he cpuld climb over it! Got stuck on tye top and started screaming and barking, i laughed so hard i cried!😂😂😂🐶♥️
I love your vids! I whatched your vids before i got my first pup! Aaaaawsoooome😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀🐶♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks. I was going to get rid of the retractable leash. I do have to find out how to get my fir baby to come. To him that's a time to bark at me and run.
I was surprised about the retractable leash because I used a retractable on my one-year-old dog and it works fine. She was not a heavy puller however.
I would be careful about the leaving a dog in a car. The temperature in some places is to hot or cold ect. Let’s hope that common sense is taken into consideration.
I didn't know about the retractable leashes, but I don't care for them anyway. I have a 6' long by 1" web leash for my new Pup, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, he is 13 weeks old. I picked up a 750lb test paracord (in purple) for his long leash since he currently weighs around 8 lbs.
What about training your dog to go to litter box when you are gone all day at work? And then when home taking it outside?
Nope nope nopedinope 😊👌🏼
It really upset me to see your dog on a treadmill. You should have explained why you weren’t actually outside interacting with him. A few times your dog pickles looked up at you, panting and then rode the treadmill back words. It looked to me that he wanted to take a rest.
I got a golden retriever comming in oct 2, and i live in an apartment, Grass Pads are not an option here in Brazil! What should i do insted of using poty pads in the beggining before all shots?
Another great video
I use the tie out (I did not know that this is what it was called), but only under supervision. If I eat my dinner or do my homework outside, I usually have my dog with him on a long leash. Or sometimes I just sit on a blanket on the grass and listen to podcast, audiobooks or watch YouTube videos.
As soon as he wants to go somewhere, but can’t because he has walked around the bench or the only tree near my house, I help him by making him following me back the right way. He loves to lie down in the shadow and chew on his Nylabone or play with a toy outside.
Since I’m present at all times while he’s on the leash, is it then okay? You’ve made me question my choices about using it. But I never leave him unsupervised and that seemed to be a key element in your reasons why they’re not a good idea to use.
My friend had a tie out in the backyard and decided to leave her dog out all day because he had a dog house too. Unfortunately she came home and found he had accidentally hung himself from it. So horrible.
The only trainer I listen to! Thanks for the tips! I have a 13 week old pup!
Can you make a video on how to convince parents for a dog, btw I personally want to adopt an adult dog.
Also I'm thirteen
